Final Project Week

Licensing

Here is the licence i chose for the machine all info on what creative licences are about can be found here Creative commons it can be fully shared though i would not mind getting some credit or thanks if its used.

Project development: Motor mounts and testing the flyweels

Ran in to some trouble when i was making and testfitting my pressfit since the stock i used for it was 2.80mm and that worked out fine when i made my first motor mount fit but when i wanted to make annother one and i cut it all of the sock was 3mm and well it did not fit so i had to change all my files to allow for it. so allways mesure your plexi before you cut.
Also this whole time i mistook a bit about the offsett and I can be terrible at remembering numbers I thought the path of the cut should be 0.02mm but that is just after you make the line 0.2mm then you get the area thats cut away and you convert the stroke to path and select the inner or outer line depending where the outside edge of the object is. I understood what the offset was but just mistook it being accounted for with the 0.02mm :P how to use a bench powersuply i read the Manual for that.
the motors and flyweel work perfectly in testing and 5v are enough to send it flying pretty fast, havent gotten any range figgures since its not guided by anything.
things to do, design the entire mount. placements of the ir sensors make mounts for them. shit this is allot





Powersuply testing voltage to see at what speed it catches and launches


Dreamed of possibilities and described how to make them probabilities

With the knowlege ive gained in the Fab academy programm i see many probabble possibilites with this as a toy but also the knowledge of sensor input and the outputs of servos
in other projects and applications Also with utilysing other methods of fabrication like molding and casting to make a statue thats interactive using infra red sensors to activate certain functions
like it rotating and following you around in a room.
